The Chinese translation of this SGV restaurant is yuanwei dian, meaning "authentic diner." And the name is spot-on: The menu selections at this no-frills Cantonese eatery are truly reminiscent of the morning fare in Hong Kong. Be prepared to wait in line for star dishes such as the congee—try the chicken and abalone variety ($8.50)—and the baked pineapple buns ($2.75) that are stuffed with a dollop of butter. Add in a HK-style coffee, sweetened with condensed milk and complimentary with a combo order, for good measure.
